This bit of news dropped earlier this week. The Bullet Club (The US branch, Bucks, Cody, Marty, Page) are looking at running a self produced show some time in 2018. There isn't really a timeframe for when it will take place and who will work it/collab with them on it is very much up in the air (you'd imagine ROH and New Japan will send some guys) but they are hyping it up and claiming that they will run it in a 10 thousand seater arena.

Maybe a bit of a foolhardy claim to make this early with very little set in place, but a very ambitious project. It will be interesting to see if they can pull it off.

They are becoming more and more like NWO. And not the cool NWO lol.

That said i'm keeping my eye on it though.

It ain't gonna come close to 10,000. ROH's best show was 3,500 so they're shooting way above their head right now.

To quote Han Solo "Don't get too cocky, kid"

Say what you want, I personally kind of want them to pull it off. It will kind of just be a major statement in the wrestling world and who knows? If they do this, maybe it will send a message to WWE to keep an eye on them? And if WWE has their backs against the wall, that is typically when they pull out the best they got...Minus Wrestlemania 32...

They are way in over their head. You need to do something like what ROH or TNA are doing.

Bullet Club may be popular in Japan, but you need a marketing machine to pull this off in U.S..
